Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's John Jay and Rich. Shoot us the tax text
jj R.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Whatever you want to say to the number nine six
eight nine three. We got second ate update in less
than twenty minutes, probably fifteen minutes from now.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
It's tax a today.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
I saw this little article where mentions eight ancient, nineteen
hundred year old scrolls have been found, and they revealed
that in Rome back in the day, they didn't mess around.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
With tax cheaters.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
If you committed tax fraud, you would be sentenced to
public execution where you'd be eaten alive by leopards.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Oh my gosh, isn't that crazy? Yeah, they were serious.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
I mean, that's the one thing you hear about the
ancients is the Romans in their tax code.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
You'd always call us to eight seven seven ninety three
seven one to four seven Rich, what is the big lie?
Speaker 3 (00:50):
The big lie? I don't know if the rest of
you have dealt with this, But if you get up
early like we do, my alarm clock goes off at
three twenty five am. So I feel like, if you're
gonna get your workout in, you need to do it
right after you leave the show, because the big lie
is I'm gonna go home and I'm gonna take a
little bit of a nap, and when I wake up,
I'm gonna go work out. I have said that to
(01:12):
myself maybe two hundred times over the course of our
radio show, and it never really works. But yesterday a
little case of the tired berries hit me. When I
was driving home. I'm like, I can go for a walk,
but I can feel I know it's early in the week,
but I can feel my body demanding that I take
a little bit of a nap. So I go and
sit down, and I would say within fifteen seconds, I'm
(01:37):
completely asleep for a few hours. And I wake up
because my son Christopher's coming home from school. And I
wake up and I am in grogland and I'm like, oh,
here I am again. I don't really want to work
out right now. I just want to eat something to relax.
But then I decided to just put on my shoes
and go. So the first time ever, yesterday I beat
(01:58):
the big Lie.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Ye a big deal.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
It was kind of hot and kind of gross yesterday
and not the temperature that I want to walk in,
but I still got in about three and a half miles.
So I got in the steps, I got in everything,
and I came home and I was so proud of myself.
But I don't think I woke up until maybe a
mile and a half in. I think I was still
I would sleepwalking that first half. I'm like, I should
walk faster, that'll wake me up, and smacking your face
(02:21):
around and listening to like loud music. But I finally
beat the big lie. The big lie gets you a lot,
it does.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
I'm guilty of it.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
You can't go home, you can't go home after leaving here.
I think it's very, very hard to get motivated.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
It is.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
So that's why I have my routine when I get
home at one o'clock and almost every afternoon unless there's
something else going on, and there's there's times where I've checked.
I get home at one o'clock and I don't leave
until the next one to come in here. Oh interesting, yeah,
like i'eline even I.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Love the idea of like again my alarm clock three
twenty five. I love the idea of like, I'm going
to go to a class at four o'clock tonight, but
that that cannot happen if you take a nap, cannot
because you're you're already in half bed mode. I feel
like when you wake up from the nap, she're like, not,
all I need to do is actually put on pajamas
and then and then we're good.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Dude.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
I went on a walk yesterday because you know, my
new Year's resolution was hit a minimum of ten thousand
steps everyday, no matter what, right with one day where
it's okay if I don't thinking on a Sunday.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
But I don't want to do that, so I've been
hitting it even on Sundays. Right.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
So yesterday I was like at seven thousand steps, but
I was already home, and I'm like, oh, oh my god,
what am I gonna get three thousand steps? I could
just go for a walk, But I hate walking. You
just hate it. Actually, I'm so bored walking. I don't
know that. I put on put on my headphones, I
listen to the show and some of the things. I'm
just like, oh, I just want to get there. I
just want to get it over with it. But I'm
going on this walk and I turn I get this
(03:42):
one point where I figured that's the part that's where
I am that like, that's I could turn around here
and get my steps in.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
So I turn around.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
I'm walking back and I hear this horn honk Amy
and I'm there behind me and I'm just like, who
the freak is gonna hawk? And a guy I'm walking
and I turn on it's my wife and he's grabbed
photo started filming and she's like jamming out to James Taylor.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
She's kidding.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
She's like, you want to ride, and I'm like, no,
I go, yes, I want to ride, but I got
these stupid steps in, so no, you go.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
So I just see her drive off.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
What I saw was first my volume was down. I'm like, oh,
she is jamming out, so that I watched it again
and turned up the volumely, Oh, she's jamming up to
James Taylor.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
I know.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Well, for her birthday, I got her James Taylor tickets.
And by the way, I don't want to see James Taylor.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
I don't. I think James Taylor is an artist.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Where you you hear the song and you might be, oh,
I know that song, but I don't want to sit
through it.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
I remember when you gave her the tickets. You were like,
now these are for you and someone else.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Yes, what I said to her, and I wanted to
make sure she knew that again. Remember you're going with
someone else friend. You could even take a man take
a jigglow, but you're not taking me anyway. Speaking of relationships,
what's going on with you Peyton and Kadeem your boyfriend?
Speaker 5 (04:59):
All good? I mean kind of good things. I think
I was telling you guys a couple of weeks ago
how he has not been feeling well at all, and
I've been trying to diagnose him. I thought he had
valley fever. Recently, I think he has walking pneumonia. Like
it's a whole thing. And I don't know what it
is about black men, but they don't want to go
to the doctor. My dad's the same, Kadeem's the same,
His dad's the same, my brother's the same. They just
don't want to go to the doctor. And so I
(05:20):
literally had to drag this man to the doctor yesterday
because his mom was in town all weekend and it
looks like I'm not taking care of her son, and
so I'm like, Okay, we have to go to the doctor.
I called my cousin, Shannon, and she's a PA and
I got him in and she prescribed him a steroid
and antibiotic and he has to do a breathing treatment
every four to six hours, and I'm like, poor guy,
(05:42):
but he's so miserable, and it's getting to the point
where like I'm getting frustrated with him because I can't
sleep at night because he's waking up and he's like,
I can't breathe, he's sweating and he's coughing, and it
makes me mad because I'm trying to sleep. But he
refused to go to the doctor for the last six months.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
What did they diagnosed with? Like, why didn't well.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
They diagnosed him well, she said that he probably has
asthma because he grew up in Portland, and so I mean,
when you move out to Arizona and you're in the desert,
it's a lot dustier. I guess our allergy season right
now is really bad. Quality is really bad. But she
also said that he needs to stop smoking, and I
think that that was kind.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Of like a what cigarettes or others?
Speaker 5 (06:22):
What do you smoke? Cigarettes? Come on that rich the
Mary Jay. But I'm like, I lost my smoking buddy
and now I'm sad.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Can he do edibles?
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (06:31):
He could, but he doesn't like that stuff mix the
stomach er.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
So when he smokes, how does he do with old
school bong, old school joints.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
He says like, that's like, no, he won't do that,
like a joint.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Okay, so that's I said, old school joint.
Speaker 5 (06:44):
Oh yeah, like a joint. But he wouldn't use like
a glass piece or anything. He thinks that's like trash
a little too deep in. Yeah, he's like, yeah, if
you're doing that, I can't.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Trust you, even if in his world, if you use
a bong you're not a good person.
Speaker 5 (06:58):
No, it's not that you're not a good person. It's
just like what else do you use?
Speaker 2 (07:02):
You know what?
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Oh? Really? Oh, let's talk to the experts over there.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
I kind of agree with Bayde and I have a
couple of nice bongs and stuff, but I do feel
like I'm smoking crack or something like crack when I'm
using it.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
I've seen brands bong display it's almost like an athlete
would put trophies on the shelf.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
Don't get me wrong, I do smoke crack out of it.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I think it's also pretty old school too, like you
know right, Yeah, In fact, I want to see a
great scene from a movie of someone smoking a bong.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
I believe it is Brad Pitt in True Romance. Oh yeah, right,
he
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Has an uncredited role in the movie, and he's just
a bong pothead and he's just the whole time, and
it's like, oh my god, this brand, it made me
want to smoke weed.
It's John Jay and Rich. Shoot us the tax text
